With respect to UK remittances that flow internationally, FCDO does not collect or report this data globally. The best proxy is the World Bank Group's remittance data which is published annually and available online https://www.worldbank.org/en/topic/migrationremittancesdiasporaissues/brief/migration-remittances-data and captures flows through formal banking systems.
